You’re Allowed to Outgrow Old Versions of Yourself

Hello Friend,

Here’s something no one says enough:

And guess what?
That includes jobs, friendships, beliefs, habits — even identities.

^{CLIPS ARE AT THE END}

Growth Feels Like Discomfort

It’s wild how much pressure we feel to stay the same just to keep others comfortable.

But growth isn’t always neat.
Sometimes it looks like:

✅ Saying no to what drains you.
✅ Losing interest in what used to excite you.
✅ Letting go of people who no longer align with your values.
✅ Quietly building the next version of yourself while the old one dies off.

That’s not weakness.
That’s maturity.

Why This Matters Now

2025 is the year a lot of people are shedding layers.
Reevaluating their paths.
Trying to step into something bigger, realer, and more honest.

But it’s scary.
Because change can look like failure… until it becomes freedom.

This is your permission slip to change.
Even if people don’t get it yet.
Even if it’s messy.
Even if you’re still figuring it out.
